The woman had a pure and elegant appearance. She dressed in a noble manner, unlike anyone from the town, appearing very unfamiliar.The man was Daniel.Sienna sat down abruptly. She nervously lowered her body and used the back of the sofa to cover herself.Jane was puzzled, so she asked, "What's wrong? Can't write anymore?"Sienna forced a smile. She said quietly, "I'm taking a break, you can continue."Jane didn't hold back her sarcasm, "Your typing speed is slow, who knows how long it will take for you to catch up to me, you're so lazy."Sienna's mind was no longer on the plot. She cautiously turned around to sneak a peek. She stuck her head out and saw there was a man and a woman in front of her. Seeing Daniel was sitting with his back to her, she breathed a sigh of relief and then sat properly.There were three seats between them, so she couldn't hear clearly what they were saying.However, the woman sitting across from Daniel was very elegant.Although Sienna had alread
Vivian nervously continued, "For the past year, I've thought countless times about meeting you and apologizing to you, but I've been too busy with work. My agent doesn't allow me to go out alone, I—"Daniel interrupted, "Weren't you just an ordinary and lesser-known actress who turned into an internet celebrity? And now you're so busy?"Vivian nervously picked up a napkin to wipe away her tears. Deep down, she complained that Daniel was not being considerate or gentle at all, not even handing her the tissue.Vivian said with confidence, "I've become the female lead."Daniel immediately took out his phone and asked, "What show?"Vivian's expression became somber. She felt embarrassed to be questioned so bluntly by Daniel.The way Daniel asked Vivian was like interrogating a criminal. He asked seriously, "What's the name of the show?"Vivian hesitantly told him the name of the show.After Daniel searched for it, he glanced at it and put down his phone. He lightly said, "Lead in a
As Sienna was bustling around, a person suddenly approached her.Just as she and Jane finished tidying up the table and putting their laptops down, a warm and gentle voice called her name. "Sienna."Upon hearing Daniel's voice, Sienna felt nervous. With her heart racing like crazy, she felt at a loss.Still, she pretended to be calm. Looking at him, she forced a smile and said, "What a coincidence, Captain Morrison."The way she addressed Daniel made him feel uncomfortable. He couldn't even manage to smile. He said, "I've been waiting for your call, waiting for you to come to me for the past few days."Jane was shocked as she looked at Daniel. Then, she looked at Sienna.She wondered when Sienna had acquired such a tall, handsome male friend. She called him "captain", so he must be a police officer.Since there were other people around, Sienna didn't want to discuss the matter. She quickly changed the subject. "I've been busy these days."At this moment, Vivian walked up to D
Daniel's expression became somber. He corrected her with a serious tone, "She's not just any caregiver—she's the person I'm pursuing."At this remark, all three women were stunned.Sienna's face instantly flushed.Daniel was really straightforward. He didn't bother to hide anything, nor was he being subtle at all.What was she supposed to do with such bluntness?"I, uh, I'll get going first," Sienna said before walking past Daniel.Daniel pulled her arm. This time, he didn't let go. Instead, he politely said to Jane, "Are you Sienna's friend?"Jane smiled and said, "I'm Jane Snyder, Captain Morrison. You can call me Jane.""Jane, can I borrow Sienna for a moment?" Daniel asked politely.Sienna was confused. What did he mean by that?Jane immediately left Sienna with Daniel. Her happiness was evident. "Sure, take your time," she replied. "She's not busy now. Except for working two or three hours a day, she's quite free.""Thanks." Daniel nodded politely at her. Then, he wal
Daniel smiled excitedly and nodded with seriousness."Firstly, our relationship needs to stay a secret. We can't make it public, and we can't let my family know about it."Daniel's expression slowly became gloomy."Secondly, if I want a breakup, you must agree unconditionally."Upon hearing this, Daniel became listless. He was unhappy as he looked at her.Slowly, he tightened his grip on the steering wheel. He felt miserable because he experienced the pain of heartbreak even before it had officially begun.Seeing his discomfort, Sienna panicked. "If you find it difficult, we can just remain as friends, don't we?" she asked. "I agree with your conditions," Daniel said firmly.At that moment, Sienna felt her heart skip a beat. She was so nervous that she trembled.With those words, they were officially dating. The subtle sensation made her feel confused and lost."Okay," Sienna responded. She didn't know what to say or do next. She was so nervous that her body stiffened. Leani
Daniel was dumbfounded. He and Sienna had agreed they were in a relationship, but she acted like she wasn't a part of it. He reached for her hand again, looking into her eyes, and said, "I can tell you're not being truthful by how your eyes dart around. Your cheeks are also red. You seem nervous, and I can sense fear."Sienna met his intense gaze and felt a knot form in her throat. She knew his job made him skilled at spotting lies in people.She worried that he might see straight through her, leaving her with no way to conceal anything in the future. Uncertainty overwhelmed her thoughts.Daniel continued, "This is your home now, too. Stop thinking of yourself as just a guest when you're here. "And when it comes to addressing me, feel free to use 'Daniel,' 'Dan,' 'Darling,' or 'Sweetheart,' but never 'Captain Morrison.'"Sienna bit her lip, feeling her cheeks grow warm.He locked eyes with her, his gaze lingering on her rosy lips. His mouth began to dry up. She was shy, but
"I don't want to go in. I just want to go home," Sienna said. She felt too uneasy to enter Daniel's house.Reluctantly, Daniel agreed to take her back. During the ride home, they exchanged contact information to keep in touch.As soon as they arrived, Sienna quickly exited the car and hurried upstairs, almost as if she was running away.Daniel stepped out of the car, feeling a weight in his chest as he watched Sienna rush off. He understood her need for space and decided to give her time to adjust.After all, this was just the beginning, and rushing things wouldn't be good for either of them.Sienna resided in a five-story, old apartment building. Its age was evident, probably around 50 or 60 years old.Daniel strolled through the property, checking the fire hydrant's functionality. Then, he turned his attention to the weathered electrical box affixed to the wall and surveyed the nearby shops.He saw a few hair salons in the alley next to the building. They looked open for busin
"No, I'm good," Sienna huffed. She chomped down on her apple with a loud crunch and chewed vigorously."Oh, come on, join me and check it out. You never know; I might land a small part," Felix urged.He fixed his meticulously groomed hair. He brimmed with excitement as if he was on the verge of stardom at any moment.Sienna glared at him. "I'm not going. Is it that hard to understand?""Are you suddenly going through menopause, or did you eat something spicy?" Felix muttered.He dashed out of the house before Sienna could hurl her apple at him.Sienna couldn't resist any longer. She reached for her phone and considered calling Daniel herself. With him not reaching out, she felt it was time to take matters into her own hands.Just as she was about to dial, an incoming call interrupted her, causing her to jump at the sudden ringing. When she saw Daniel's caller ID flash across the screen, a jolt of nerves surged through her.Setting down her apple, she cleared her throat and comp
